Simon Pegg Says Tom Cruise & 'Mission: Impossible' Helped Save Him From Alcoholism
Simon Pegg, the star of franchises like Star Trek and Mission: Impossible, is currently promoting his sixth appearance in the universe of international spies and mind-bending stunts. Mission: Impossible - The Final Reckoning will see the actor reprise his role as Benji Dunn, the tech wiz who always has an answer for everything and has been one of Ethan Hunt's most loyal companions since Mission: Impossible III. However, despite Pegg's consistent presence as a key player in the action franchise, the reality behind the camera was very different when he began playing Benji. The actor had been battling alcoholism for some time, but fortunately, he was saved from going deeper into that hole by those involved in the blockbuster franchise, including industry icon Tom Cruise.
